General

Therva Maresis is an Aes Sedai of the Yellow Ajah. She joined the Salidar Aes Sedai when the Tower split (TFoH, Ch. 50).

Therva has a long nose (LoC, Ch. 30). She is thin (CoT, Ch. 19).

Miscellaneous

• After seeing Nynaeve Heal Siuan and Leane, Therva begins to think that Fire might be useful for Healing the heart (LoC, Ch. 30).

• Therva was not happy to be sent to Shadar Logoth. She was chosen because she was good at reading residues, not because she volunteered to go (CoT, Ch. 19).

• Therva is excitable by nature (CoT, Ch. 19).

Quotes

"'...See where Fire might be useful in problems with the heart,' Therva said, tapping her long nose. Beldemaine... nodded thoughtfully." (Lord of Chaos, Chapter 30)

"Only Therva's long-nosed face wore a look of absolute serenity, completely unperturbed and unshakeable, yet that in itself was a bad sign. The Yellow sister was excitable by nature." (Egwene about Therva after her visit to Shadar Logoth; Crossroads of Twilight, Chapter 19)
